Practical Enlightenment
What it means to us and why it is important
“So, enlightenment reminds me that something lost and ruined in one part of the earth’s body is a loss in the remaining parts. Life not only gives but expects responsibility in return.”
The enlightened and unenlightened
I frequently use the word enlightenment as something to aspire to and a state of mind that I want to share with others. I imagine the word to mean seeing the world anew, with all the possibilities and opportunities for us to live and think in a better way.
There is a definite dividing line between the enlightened and the unenlightened.
The people in the latter, unfortunate grouping can most often be recognized from afar. They are the ones who seem always embroiled in arguments. There is always drama wherever they go.
